 hi all just home this evening, pretty sore still but otherwise okay, long day of travel and glad to come home to a nice surprise husband painted living room and kitchen while i was away.  had a few complications out of surgery but nothing too major, hard time getting my o2 stats up and they kept dropping then low hemoglobin an racing heart rate so they ran a bunch of tests to make sure no blood clots etc.  all is well they think just might have been a reaction to going under,  well just wanted to give a quick update

Glad you are doing well!!! Nice to hear how you are doing!

I had my surgery the same day as you. Some similarities. We all found out I have an irregular heart beat. Consultation was done with the Cardiologist and we proceeded with surgery as per normal after they monitored my heart for a bit.

I too am pretty sore. I think I keep using my stomach muscles to avoid hurting myself and now they seem really sore. It's nice to know I'm not the only sore one!!

Wow, your hubby was pretty nice to do some painting!!!

Welcome home, Robin. CONGRATS!!

Just out of curiousity... how was the flight home post-op? Were you comfortable?

Glad you're on the mend.
